We don't support kexec - not sure why we'd package up tools..?

Is is not so hard to build kernel with kexec enabled. And if someone do so - it is better to provide some batteries included for him. It would be pleasant.

I'm not sure you're following - we intentionally disable it to reduce the attack surface. Are you saying you're using a custom kernel with kexec enabled? If so, sure, but having kexec
turned on is a different topic.

I'm not talking about having kexec enabled (in shipped kernel, I mean)

That answers exactly none of my question..

I don't understand the complexity of having this package included in mainline repo... It's package.yml extremely straightforward. If you don't want enable kexec in shipped kernel - well, don't do that. If someone else decided to enable it - it would be helpful to have kexec-tools in repo rather than building it by hand.

Well that's what I was asking you - but you failed to give a response.

Are you saying you're using a custom kernel with kexec enabled?

You replied (since edited)

I can't guess what you mean, and I explicitly asked if this was for the kernel enabling or if you were using a custom kernel. If you give me straight answers
I can actually get things done, like having packages accepted.

Sorry about that.

I think this is clear in some way. If I would ask you about enabling kexec in shipped kernel, I would create another task, in appropriate tracker (or with appropriate tags). Starting from now I will be more precise in describing things.

I'm going to give you a bit of advice - please drop the attitude. What needed to be said was already said at "Sorry about that" - now you're just prodding sleep dogs.
The issue will be looked at when folks are around (right now its 02:35 AM here so that won't be me)

I'm going to listen to your advice, thanks.
